I am confused. Is this 'My Pictures' directory on CD or is it stuff you have moved to hard disk? If it is on CD, I don't think you can set the permissions on that directory because you can't write to the CD. I don't know why you can't do an ls. Try doing an ls -laF up there before you cd to importedpictures. ////jerry > > -- > > > Pete > > Mail brought to you by FreeBSD 4.7 and Sylpheed-claws > > http://milneweb.com > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message > To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
